But if you kill the installer before the end and don't read the licence, the 
SDK won't be installed anyway.
So where  is the problem?

I thought about that.  But in theory, you should accept the license before the 
bits hit your computer.  Once we've uncompressed the package to get at the 
installer.xml, we've essentially done a lot of the install and you could kill 
the installer at that point and never see the license dialog.

So far, I'm liking Justin's idea of having the installer.xml sit alongside the 
binary packages.
